The Android Arsenal - NoSQL - realm-android-user-store

Realm is a mobile database that runs directly inside phones, tablets or wearables.

repositories {
    maven {
        url 'http://oss.jfrog.org/artifactory/oss-snapshot-local'
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'io.realm:secure-userstore:<version>'
}

See version.txt for the latest version number.

Building Realm Sync User Encryption

In case you don't want to use the precompiled version, you can build the library yourself from source.

Prerequisites:

Download/the JDK 7 or JDK 8 from Oracle and install it.
Download & install the Android SDK, Android 6.0 (API 23) (for example through Android Studio’s Android SDK Manager)

Once you have completed all the pre-requisites building the library is done with a simple command

./gradlew assemble

That command will generate:

an aar file for the library in app/build/outputs/aar/android-sync-user-encryption-release.aar

you can also install the aar into your local maven repository.

./gradlew publishAARPublicationToMavenLocal
